This spacious owner financed house sitting on 2.4 acres in Fox Chapel balances elegance with comfort so perfectly that it was chosen for the filming of a movie.
At one time there were 3 generations living in the house, so let’s look at the spaces that made it possible.
As you enter through the front door, you have the option of settling into the cozy living room with it’s natural light, built in seating/storage & fireplace or grabbing a snack in the formal dining room. Both rooms spill out into the kitchen which has an eating space almost as large as the dining room. The almost floor to ceiling windows in the kitchen overlook the wooded part of the yard. Enjoy your breakfast and lunch while bird watching. (Bald Eagles are nested very close to there.)
Upstairs has 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths. Of course the 2nd full bath is in the huge master suite which also boasts 2 closets, a walk in closet and a build in dresser.
The in-law suite has it’s own private entrance from the porch which leads into the bed/fill bath section of the suite. Of course there are plenty of closets. Exiting the bedroom is a large semi divided room which enters onto the kitchen, the heart of the house.
Finally, the basement is partially finished with a 2 room suite which I am counting as the 6th bedroom. This room can be accessed from the kitchen stairwell, the 2 car garage or the fenced in back yard. Additionally there is tons of storage in the usual areas such as the attic and basement as well as plenty of closets, and storage nooks. The laundry is tucked discreetly off of the kitchen.
LOCATION: All of this is nestled in a wooded lot on a private street in the Fox Chapel School District. Wisely located with easy access to downtown, shopping, dining and recreation or week end getaways via Rte 28 and I76.
ATTRACTIONS: Close to Shadyside Academy, Hartwood Acres, Beechwood Farms Nature Preserve, HealthSouth Rehabilitation, VA hospital, UPMC St Margaret’s Hospital. As well as cinemas, shopping and fine dining in areas such as the waterworks Mall, Galeria at Pittsburgh Mills, Ross Park Mall and McKnight Road.
FINANCING: Don’t forget that it’s owner financed, has seller carry back, seller financing, no matter how you say it, you have the option of having the seller back any financing that you may need.
It is the perfect blend of traditional ie the beautiful hardwood floors & fireplace and modern amenities as first floor laundry and separate entrance for the in-law suite. What are you waiting for? Get the keys to your new home now!
